Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 142 Conferring meritorious service, see Ai Nengqi

In the 17th year of Chongzhen, the fourth day of August.

Zeng Ying, Yang Zhan and Cao Xun returned to Chengdu with their triumphant troops.

Aunt Zhu performed meritorious service for the three of them and many generals under their command in Chengyun Hall.

"Zeng Ying made a good strategy and dispatched well this time. For this first victory in the battle, he was promoted to the deputy commander-in-chief of Chengdu, and was rewarded with 500 taels of silver, [-] pieces of silk, and [-] pieces of Shu brocade."

The so-called deputy commander-in-chief is the deputy general, between the participating generals and the commander-in-chief.

Zeng Ying can become a high-ranking military general at the age of 23. In the future, let alone the position of commander-in-chief, it is possible to be a marquis.

Therefore, Zeng Ying knelt down and bowed immediately after Fang Zhenghua finished reading the decree issued by Aunt Zhu as the supervisor of the country: "The last general, Zeng Ying, take the decree to thank you!"

Afterwards, Fang Zhenghua successively read Zhu Yu's rewards to other people.

"Yang Zhan and Cao Xun led the cavalry to meet the enemy this time. They were all brave and courageous. They destroyed the enemy's cavalry and beheaded dozens of them.

Therefore, Yang Zhan and Cao Xun were the guerrilla generals of the Chengdu battalion, each rewarded with 300 liang of silver, [-] pieces of silk and satin, and [-] pieces of Shu brocade. "

Yang Zhan and Cao Xun went out together and knelt down to thank Auntie Zhu on the throne.

Afterwards, another three generals, Li Zhanchun, Yu Dahai, and Zhang Tian, ​​were appointed as the commanders-in-chief of a thousand soldiers, and each was rewarded with a hundred taels of silver and thirty bolts of silk.

In addition, dozens of meritorious people headed by Dong Qiongying were appointed as battalion generals.

In fact, Auntie Zhu intends to transfer Dong Qiongying to her personal guard camp, but knowing that Dong Qiongying and Zeng Ying have not officially married yet, but they are already close to each other, so she plans to ask Dong Qiongying what she thinks later before making a decision.

In addition to these generals who directly participated in the battle, Zhu Wei also rewarded the pilots of the Flying Eagle Team such as Hong Niangzi.

The main rewards were silver taels and silk and satin. He was not promoted, but all the credits were recorded. We only need to discuss the credits together after Zhang Xianzhong is solved.

After some rewards, most of the generals left the Shu Palace and went back to the camp.

Only Zeng Ying, Yang Zhan, and Cao Xun stayed behind, and they went to the West Mansion with Li Yan, Hong Niangzi and others to discuss how to prepare and respond to the following battles.

Although they won a big victory, and the "drone beheading plan" was used as the trump card in the Chengdu defense battle, as long as Zhang Xianzhong's hundreds of thousands of troops were in mind, none of the civil servants and generals in Chengdu could really relax.

With Zhang Xianzhong's military strength, even if those whose combat power is too weak to be counted are removed, Chengdu can be surrounded on all sides, and tens of all-purpose soldiers can be placed on each side.

Of course, Chengdu is not very clear about how many elites Zhang Xianzhong has and how many capable soldiers he has.

Therefore, the interrogation of Ainengqi, Feng Shuangli and other captured thieves is also in progress...

Hao Guangming was originally curious about Ai Nengqi, one of Zhang Xianzhong's four adopted sons. Hearing that during the Longquan Lake battle, Ai Nengqi almost shot Zeng Ying to death with an arrow, so he became even more curious about this man.

So, at his suggestion, Aimee Zhu went to see Ai Nengqi on the afternoon of the fifth day of August.

Instructed by Aimee Zhu, Ai Nengqi was imprisoned in the cell of Shu Palace.

It is said to be a prison cell, but the conditions are not bad. There are beds, tables and chairs, and toilets.

Just considering Ainengqi's bravery, he put anklets and bracelets on him, and tied them to the stone pillars in the cell to prevent him from escaping.

As the fourth of Zhang Xianzhong's four adopted sons, Ai Nengqi is only 21 years old this year, very young.

He is straight-tempered, and his temper is a bit explosive, how can he stand being detained?
In just two or three days after being captured, he lost weight and lost a lot of energy.

After being imprisoned in the Shu Palace, he couldn't help thinking about it.

'Is it possible that these dog officers and soldiers are imprisoning me to sacrifice my flag when my foster father attacks the city? '

'Or do you want to use me to threaten your adoptive father to give up attacking Chengdu? '

Humph, what a daydream, even if I, Zhang Nengqi, die, I will never let the Gou Guanjun use it to threaten my adoptive father! '

Thinking of the end, Ai Nengqi finally made up his mind, if the officers and soldiers wanted to use him to threaten Zhang Xianzhong, he would jump off the top of Chengdu City at that time, life and death depended on God!

Determined to die, Ainengqi finally stopped being irritable, so he lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep, snoring.

Bang Bang Bang!
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Ainengqi was awakened by a knocking sound.

Then he heard the officer guarding him outside say: "Zhang Nengqi, get up quickly, the prison country wants to see you!"

Awakened during sleep, Ai Nengqi became very angry, and shouted without batting an eye: "What kind of bird supervises the country, I don't see you!"

"Bold, how dare you insult the prison country? It's embarrassing for you, isn't it?" The captain of the guard changed his face when he heard this, and after drinking a word, he led a few people into the cell and beat Ai Nengqi with a scabbard.

Auntie Zhu watched from the outside, but didn't immediately stop her.

After Ai Nengqi was beaten more than a dozen times, unable to resist (not in good condition and weak), and was beaten to the point of hugging her head, she said calmly: "Stop."

"Yes."

The guarding soldiers withdrew their hands and stepped aside, still staring at Ai Nengqi, as if they would draw their knives if Ai Nengqi cursed again.

After being beaten, Ainengqi was completely sober.

He was not afraid of death, but he didn't want to be beaten to death by a few pawns in the cell.

So, after sitting up from the bed, he glared fiercely at the pawns, and then looked outside the cell.

Seeing Aimee Zhu outside the cell, and Aimee Zhu's brigade of soldiers following Aimee Zhu, he realized that Aimee Zhu's identity is not simple.

It's a pity that although he can read some characters, he has no education and doesn't know what Jian Guo means.

So he frowned and asked, "What kind of supervisor are you? What are you doing seeing me?"

Hao Guangming saw Ai Nengqi clearly through the camera of his mobile phone, and found that although this man had a beard, it was not thick, and the beard looked soft, obviously very young.

He is short, but strong.

Probably because he has killed many people, his eyes are indeed ferocious, but a little naive.

Hearing Ai Nengqi's words, Hao Guangming couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm afraid he doesn't know what Jian Guo means."

Aimee Zhu couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and immediately said: "Ai Nengqi? Do you know who I am?"

"Aren't you a supervisor?" Ainengqi didn't want to think about it at all, and then frowned, "You know that my last name is Ai?"

Auntie Zhu was a little speechless, and said directly: "This palace is Princess Kunxing, who was ordered by the late emperor to supervise the country and take charge of the military and political affairs of the entire Ming Dynasty."

"Are you a princess?" Ai Nengqi still couldn't grasp the important point of prison, but then he thought of another point, "Chengdu is now your decision?"

"good."

"Then you're out of luck." Ai Nengqi grinned, "In a few days, my father will come to Chengdu, and when a million troops attack the city, your city of Chengdu will definitely not be able to bear it.

If you are smart, release Er and Feng Shuangli now, and surrender the whole city to Er's father, maybe you can survive. "

Auntie Zhu couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and said: "It's you who should surrender—if you surrender now and ask Ben Gong, maybe Ben Gong can consider to spare your adoptive father's life."

"Hehe." Ai Nengqi sneered disdainfully.

Auntie Zhu didn't expect to be able to persuade Ai Nengqi to surrender now, she just came to satisfy Hao Guangming and her own curiosity.

In order to prevent Ai Nengqi from saying any more exaggerated words, she simply shook her head and left directly.

After Aimee Zhu left, the captain of the guard in charge couldn't understand Ai Nengqi's confidence that Chengdu would be broken.

He sneered and said, "Boy, do you know who our Jianguo is? They are fairies descended to earth, with great supernatural powers and many magic weapons.

Jian Guo said that if Zhang Xianzhong died at the third watch, Zhang Xianzhong would not survive the fifth watch.

Just now Jianguo gave you a chance to intercede, but you didn't take it seriously, hehe, you will regret it when you hear the news of your adoptive father Zhang Xianzhong's death in the future! "
